Sea to Summit Ultra-Sil Nano Dry Sack (35 Liter / Lime)
October 9, 2018 - Comment
In the age of ultra-lightweight everything they have developed a range of ultra-lightweight dry sacks to save those crucial few grams. Using a 15 denier Sil/PU nylon fabric we call Ultra-Sil Nano, a lightweight side release buckle and a thinner roll top closure Sea to Summit have created a dry sack that is 30% lighter than their standard 30 D Ultra-Sil Dry Sacks!
Product Features

- Ultra-Sil Nano has a 1,200mm waterhead
- Fully seam-sealed for maximum water-proofness
- Reinforced stitching for greater seam strength on all stress points
- Hypalon roll top closure does not wick moisture

Probably going to buy another one and a larger one for jeans and hoodies.

It appears that the 1,200mm head spec for these just may not be enough to keep sweat from being pushed into them in running use. Keep that in mind. You get nearly 2x the water resistance for a little more weight by using the non-Nano version, and even for a weight weenie, it’s probably a better bet to try those.EDIT:I loved these at first. Light. pretty tough. Easy to use. But after about 10 uses, I…
